Good morning,
Yes - of course I should explain what the problem was!
Well, on the surface of it, it looked like a cookie problem according to this, however I checked my cookies and everything seemed to be ok.
I found a link to the MovableType forums, and this was an issue many people had problems with - click here. However, a patch for the 3.16 version - in which the problem exists - has been created. It is as follows:
There are two instances of the following line in /lib/MT/app.pm ~
>if ($path =~ m!^https?://[^/]+(/.*)$!i) {
These lines need to be replaced with ~
>if ($path =~ m!^https?://[^/]+(/?.*)$!i) {
The login error should then be eliminated.
Thank you all for your warm welcomes
Oliver
